By its toning and tnvigoratins effect upon the digestive organs, Hoods Sarsaparilla readily gives relief when headache arises from indi gestion; and in neuralgia conditions by building up the debitated system, Hoods Sarsaparlla removes the cause and hence overcomes the difficulty.

Clarke, General Stewart, and numerous
other familiar figures, attracted the inter
est and attention of the crowds yester-
day.
The Marylanders in the Confederate
army we're peculiarly entitled to the re-
gard of the Southern people, for, feeling
like us, they were exiles from their State,
and devoted themselves to our cause
without any home to back them except
the one they found here
They acquired homestead right in the
South by their gallaniry, and Yirginians
are proud To call the Marylanders their
kindred. General Snowden Andrews,
and many others known TO us since the
war, recall the fraternal relations with
their State in way that makes them a
part of the most heroic chapters OF our
Confederate history.
